  1. Lower CGC fees would be great but, perhaps like you and other posters, I am extremely doubtful that will occur but I hope to be proven wrong.
  2. Yes, grades have also, I'll write, changed. I also own some Suscha News copies, slabbed and raw as well, and they do have very nice white pages as do comic books from other pedigrees; for the latter, at least the ones I was fortunate to purchase. Unfortunately, I imagine that some SN copies, for example, are being stored in less than ideal conditions and that may, over time (How long? I don't know.), cause pages to turn off-white. I'll note as a joke, that I vaguely recall someone posting many years ago that they or they were aware of someone that kept a slabbed comic book in the trunk of a car and that due to the temperature in the trunk from the car sitting in the hot summer sun the, I believe, once white pages of the comic book turned off-white or was it light-brown. I think that it was a modern comic book but I don't recall if it was a relatively expensive one.
  3. Based on board history, as concerns CGC's page color designation, OW-WP have often enough gone to WP and vice-versa upon CPR or straight re-submission. Of course, it may occur that the white pages of a comic book become off-white to white, perhaps ow, while in the slab. In sum, CGC's page color designation is, I'll write, not scientific.
  4. CGC will return a Rocket Racer comic book. I jest, .... ... ... or do I.

  6. Not that any other board member should care, and very likely do not, but I'm undecided whether to renew my CGC membership that expired on September 5, 2023, due primarily to the continuous QC issues although I have been on a run of good fortune with QC. Thankfully, this decision is quite easier than almost any other one for me; a tough one is what to have for lunch at home or otherwise.
